This month, Brian Kom chats with Dmitry Chesnokov of Yahoo! Puck Daddy and TSN, as well as Yahoo! Canada's Junior Hockey editor Neate Sager.
This month begins with my interview with Puck Daddy writer and TSN contributor Dmitry Chesnokov, who tells us what to expect from Alexander Radulov for the rest of this year and beyond. We also discuss in-depth the increasing competition for players coming from the KHL, and what that might mean about the future of Russian-born players in the NHL like Evgeni Kuznetsov and Vladimir Tarasenko.
Then, we'll address one of the topics that always heats up this time of year-- tanking. I'll let you know about a new idea that could solve the problem in both the NHL, and your keeper leagues.
And finally, Yahoo! Canada's Junior Hockey editor Neate Sager gives you the goods on which teams and players you're going to want a keep an eye on in the OHL, WHL, and QMJHL as the road to the Memorial Cup kicks into gear. And with Sven Bartschi as inspiration, we'll kick around an idea for what may be a better way to rank the CHL's top scorers.

Story at a Glance
Media Contacts
WASHINGTON – New revenue estimates released by Chief Financial Officer Dr. Natwar M. Gandhi show an additional $107 million in District revenues for Fiscal Year 2011, and an additional $77.2 million for Fiscal Year 2012, Mayor Vincent C. Gray announced today. The increase, driven primarily by commercial property taxes, is the second consecutive revenue increase projected by the Chief Financial Officer, and suggests that the economic recovery continues in the District of Columbia. The new revenue estimates represent a 4.9% increase over those released by the Office of the Chief Financial Officer in February of 2011.
"The District of Columbia continues to financially outperform so many jurisdictions in the United States," said Mayor Gray. "I am pleased to see our fiscal prudence yield such positive results."
The new projections follow the recently passed Fiscal Year 2012 Budget and Financial Plan, which specified that future new revenues be used to finance expenditures that did not fit within the original budget.
Mayor Gray and the Council of the District of Columbia will continue to work collaboratively to ensure the District allocates the additional revenue in the best interest of District residents while maintaining a structurally balanced budget.
Details regarding the revised June revenue estimate are located on the OCFO's website cfo.dc.gov under CFO NEWS.

My fantastic Photographer wife: http://www.capturedhearts-photography.com
Got mine the other day, a set of whoopie hooks and a set of tarp flyz. Love the little card to show how to use them, very nice addition .......RR
I'm a member of PETA!!!!
The directions cards are great and just shows how much thought Dutch puts into his products and customer service. Its a slippery slope though, it starts off with some stingerz and hooks and then you start wondering if you need one of everything!
The best in the business. Once you go Dutch, you won't go back!
Enjoy the Bling!
Very nice! Whoopie hooks are probably my favorite piece of hardware on my entire hammock setup!

Neutral Experience
Average Interview
I applied online and the process took 2+ months - interviewed at Marsh in December 2010.
Interview Details The interviews themselves were pretty standard, with the standard questions, beginning with a screening phone interview with HR recruiter (about 30 min), followed 3 weeks later by a 1:1 interiew (1.5 hours) with what would have been the immediate supervisor. This was followed a week later by a morning of 3 separate interviews with higher ups, each lasting about 45 min. That morning they were juggling the 2-3 final job candidates. I followed up all my face to face interviews with handwritten thank you notes.
The 2nd interview was followed by ...... nothing. 6 weeks of nothing. Not a peep. At week 4, I "touched base" with my 1:1 interviewer and was told they hadn't even begun to discuss the finalists. At week 6, I contacted the HR recruiter (again to "touch base"). She called back 2 days later and said they were 'close to a decision". That afternoon I received the no thanks email from the 1:1 interviewer -- "we've decided to go with another candidate."
The whole process took nearly 3 months -- from the initial phone interview to the kiss-off letter . I really wonder, after so much time had passed between interview and decision, whether the interviewers actually remembered anything about the candidates --no one took notes while I was there.
One of the interesting things is that the position had been open since early Sept 2010 and they desparately wanted to bring someone in quickly to relieve the massive workload. At the same time the 1:1 interviewer said he was "extremely picky" about who he interviewed and hired.
My overall impression is that Marsh culture expects its employees to forget having a personal life and concentrate solely on working as many hours as possible. I was told that a normal, average week was 50-55 hours, 60++ when things were busy. Most of the office was a cube farm, with only very senior people having offices, and those were small inside offices (no windows). People seemed nice, but on the whole it didn't seem a congenial place. No one asked for salary expectations throughout the process, and a salary range was never mentioned.
Interview Question – Tell me how you would deal/ have dealt with a major disagreement with a higher up in which you were right, but he/she outranked you and was insisting on the wrong course of action. Answer Question
Marsh is a world leader in delivering risk and insurance services and solutions to its clients. From its founding in 1871 to the present day, Marsh has provided thought leadership and innovation for clients and the… — Full Overview

School Districts, the operative terms are "negligent" and "failed to prevent."Read more

How to Select
How to select Bathroom Lighting
Selecting bathroom lighting may seem like a difficult task, especially for individuals who don't know anything about lighting fixtures. This guide will make this process easier and will help you find the perfect option to fit your needs. No matter what lighting fixture you select for your bathroom, it needs to be resistant to moisture since the bathroom is the only room of the house that has water applications in it.
The first thing to consider when selecting bathroom lighting is the size of the room and whether it has access to natural light. If the area of your bathroom is small, a single light may be enough to illuminate it properly. Larger bathrooms require more fixtures to be installed in different locations of the room.
Specify the type of lighting fixtures that you want to install in the bathroom. You might want to mount task or directional lighting devices near the mirror and sink area in addition to the main lamp installed on the ceiling. Also, don't forget about the shower area.
The most important requirement of bathroom lighting is using the fixtures that don't provide shadows. Because most of the bathrooms don't have any windows and thus access to sun light, it is important to have the most natural light possible. If you don't have proper illumination in this room, you will have hard time performing your everyday bathroom routine.
The wattage and operation cost of bathroom lighting fixtures is an important factor to consider as well. You need to know how much energy the lamps will use and prepare the budget to cover the expenses. Knowing the wattage of each fixture might also help you replace some light bulbs with more efficient ones and thus save money and energy.
The design and amount of light are also the factors to consider. Selecting the bathroom lighting that will match the current décor of the room will help add style to it in addition to creating nice and enjoyable atmosphere. The amount of light can be regulated with dimmer switches and other similar controls.
What type of bathroom lighting is the most efficient?
During the past few years LED technology has become the most efficient type of lighting. Not only does it provide reliable and long lasting operation, it also helps you save money in the long run. And the best thing about LED lighting is that it offers multifunctional and very flexible features, allowing you to install such lighting fixtures in every type of building.

La donna del lago (Screening) at Curzon Richmond
27 May 2013
The ultimate bel canto cast is assembled for this important yet rarely performed masterpiece. Based on Sir Walter Scott's poem The Lady of the Lake, La donna del lago is the most fully Romantic of Rossini's Italian operas. In Renaissance Scotland, King James V travels to the tribal Highlands, where he falls in love with Elena – the lady of the lake. Her father is fighting with the clans against the King's rule and has promised Elena's hand in marriage to a clan leader, Rodrigo. Meanwhile Elena herself is in love with the young romantic hero Malcolm. The plot inspired some truly galvanizing scenes, most memorably the stunning confrontation between the tenors Uberto (James V in disguise) and Rodrigo.

December 23, 2012
WASHINGTON (AP) - National Rifle Association executive Wayne LaPierre says the American people think it would be "crazy" not to put armed guards in every school, as the group has suggested in the wake of the massacre at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn.
LaPierre also contends that any new efforts by Congress to regulate guns or ammunition would not prevent mass shootings.
LaPierre's comments on NBC's "Meet the Press" reinforced the position that the largest gun-rights lobby took on Friday when it broke its weeklong silence on the shooting rampage at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
That stand has described by some lawmakers as tone-deaf.
Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., says LaPierre blames everything but guns for a series of mass shootings in recent years.

2939 W Sunset Blvd, Silver Lake, CA | Directions 9002634.083915 -118.273768
Daily 5pm-2am
Neighborhoods: East LA, Silver Lake
Neighborhood bar that serves an awesome mint julep and even awesomer old fashioned. The tacos they serve outside are legit too.
Most of the action at this dimly lit Silver Lake hot spot centers around the horseshoe-shaped bar. The whiskey selection is a big draw here. For Macallan, they carry the 10, 12, 18 and 20. Small, narrow smoking patio.
Best happy hour in LA! $5 drinks 7 days a week. Great collection of whiskey! Hipsters overflow, so make sure you get there early.
Drinks are a bit pricey here, but they have an extensive whiskey selection and mix up some tasty libations. The atmosphere is pretty cool, even if it feels a bit like a Disney version of a whiskey joint. I recommend going for happy hour.
Check out the place on Wednesday. They have $5 whiskey shots all night. The bartenders are cool and make excellent cocktails...especially Cooper and Monica.
Citysearch Editorial Review – The Thirsty Crow, the latest bar from the 1933 Group (the people also behind Saints & Sinners and Bigfoot Lodge), took over the former Stinkers space, and along with the new name comes a complete makeover. The beer cans and fake skunks that used to line the walls have been replaced with a Prohibition-era decor theme--brass fixtures, vintage bar mirrors, a retro-looking jukebox--to create a neighborhood whiskey bar with a friendly staff and low-key atmosphere. There's a definite 1930s vibe when you walk in, except for the very modern plaid-clad hipsters and artsy types bellied up to the bar--not a surprising crowd, given the Silver Lake location. A fairly extensive selection of bourbons and whiskeys is available, and the specialty drink menu ($10-$12 range) features lots of the brown stuff, like old fashioneds, Sazeracs and several types of Manhattans, including unusual marmalade and mole versions. The mint julep, made with organic mint, sugar, Maker's Mark and crushed ice, is excellent, as is the bar's signature drink, the Thirsty Crow, made with Sazerac rye, bitters, citrus and ginger beer all served in a mason jar.
Get the Mint Julep – If you get Kim as a bartender, consider yourself lucky. She makes a mean mint julep and is amazingly nice. She even made sure to walk over to my table to let us know happy hour was ending soon and see if we wanted one last drink with the discounted prices. Sure drinks are on the pricey side but they are incredibly well made and pack a punch.
It Doesn't Stink – Silver Lake is a place where I don't usually find myself, but this new bourbon bar was calling my name. The Thirsty Crow is located in the old Stinkers spot and is bringing an all new crowd to the area. Opened by the guys behind Bigfoot West, the décor is a cross between Bigfoot and The Roger Room. On their menu expect to find drinks like a Manhatten, Mint Julip and Whiskey Soar. My pick for most fun drink is The Thirsty Crow (lemon, lime, rye whiskey, bitters, and ginger beer) which is served in a mason jar.
Best Bar In LA – I just found this bar a few weeks ago after moving to Echo Park. My boyfriend and I try and go as often as possible- since every time we go, we have a blast. The drink prices are really cheap, and the shots are tasty! They have Olympia Beer, which I have only found at Bar 107 in Downtown. Stinkers is like Bar 107, only much cleaner with a better group of people. The skunks are awesome! I love themed bars, and the trucker theme really makes it a great environment. My boyfriend and I plan on having out engagement party in this little piece of happiness.
SO MUCH FUN!!! – I love love love love this place. I can't tell you. Rockn DJ --- "sexxy" staff and a great beer selection... It's a must!
Stinkers Hits Home – Im beyond excited that there is now a great bar that has a pittsburgh beer (Iron City)!!!!!!!
The Dj's feature a soundtrack I've heard described as "every house party in 1977" that alone is reason to go! hahaha

I have successfully installed Max OS X Retail onto an extra IDE hard drive I had lying around. The drive is only 80gigs so I decided to transfer everything to a 140gb SATA drive I had. I used CCCloner to clone the IDE drive.
Im having trouble booting into the SATA drive when AHCI mode is selected in bios. After taking forever to boot, a NO symbol appears over the Mac logo. I rebooted using the -x -v commands and the messages just read "Still waiting for boot device".
I switched the bios to combination Sata/Pata mode and the SATA drive booted just fine, but my separate SATA WIndows 7 won't boot. It just bootloops.
The IDE drives works under both of these circumstances.
Is there any way to make the Mac OS work with the Sata AHCI mode? Im sure windows wont ever work with the Combo mode, so I have to work with the OS X.
Im running it on a Dell Gen 4 XPS and using OS X 10.6.7
Thanks ahead of time.

Fri Feb 3, 2012 9:32 am The Mets entered last season with an open competition at second base, but Turner saw more playing time than anyone could have envisioned. He has hit .300 in the minors but isn't seen as a regular offensively.
Fantasy Source Spin: As last season showed, Turner has almost no upside, regardless of the at-bats.

(and don't forget the crappy play), if a sportsbook were to put odds on whether or not Illinois head coach Bruce Weber will be around in Champaign next season, 500-1 on "yes" would be too generous. Very interested to see what occurs against Ohio State in Columbus tonight.

The Wolf Pack survived with a 79-76 win against the Fresno State Bulldogs in a Western Athletic Conference showdown Thursday night at Lawlor Events Center.
The Pack started off a bit slow, but still matched the Bulldogs shot for shot. Fresno State had its last lead of the game at 12-10 with 17 minutes to go. That came when Bulldogs guard Tim Steed hit a 3-pointer as the shot clock expired.
Nevada slowly pulled away after that and had a 21-15 lead at the midway point of the first half. Nevada's Deonte Burton was fouled soon after on a spinning layup to make the Pack lead 26-19 with 6:41 to go.
Pack post Dario Hunt got the crowd excited after he completed a 3-point play and dunked the ball twice in a span of less than a minute late in the first half. Hunt had 15 points at the intermission.
Nevada led by as many as 13 points in the first half but had to settle for a 39-33 lead as it went to the locker room at halftime.
Fresno State chipped the lead down to two points early in the second half on a pair of baskets by Steed and Greg Smith. The buckets made the score 41-39 with 18:50 to go in the conference clash.
Nevada shook off the run to build up a comfortable 55-42 lead on a layup by Jordan Burris with 13:48 to go. Burris was productive off the bench for Nevada as he scored nine points and grabbed three rebounds down the stretch.
Burris has given the team another scoring option during the current four-game win streak.
"I've been staying positive and working hard in practice," Burris said. "It's a great feeling to be out there late in the game with everything on the line. I love it."
Fresno State had another late surge left. The California school fought its way back late in the second half. Steed cut the lead to seven with 4:48 to go on a shot from beyond the arc but Nevada's Malik Story answered with a 15-foot jumper to make the score 70-64 with 2:17 to go.
Steed drained another three-pointer with 45 seconds left to make the score 72-69. However, that would be as close as the Bulldogs could get the rest of the way.
Burton was clutch at the free-throw line in the closing moments. He nailed six of his eight foul shots there to put the game away.
The Pack went on to win after Steed missed a running three pointer in attempt to tie the game at the buzzer. Even though the closing moments were sloppy for the Pack, Hunt was positive. "We didn't play a perfect game tonight, "Hunt said. "We got too lax and let them back into it. But you can't complain about a win. We'll take it."
Nevada's four-game win streak has coach David Carter feeling confident. He believes his team is learning.
"We've learned how to win games now, "he said. "As far as turning the corner, not yet. We're getting there. We just need take this momentum onto the road."
Nevada (8-13, 5-3 WAC) plays again Wednesday at league-leading Utah state at 8 p.m.

Proposal And Passing Of Immigration Laws Slow In 2012
After a considerable spike in immigration-related legislation in 2011, a recent report indicates that the pace of such laws — proposed and enacted — has significantly decreased in 2012. The report cites pending cases as a potential cause for the slowdown, and lists law enforcement, employment authorization, and identification issues as continued hot topics for state lawmakers.
The report, issued by the National Conference of State Legislatures, shows that 41 state legislatures enacted 114 bills and adopted 92 resolutions between January 1 and June 30, 2012, representing a 20 percent decrease from the same time frame in 2011. Additionally, the number of immigration-related bills and resolutions proposed by lawmakers thus far in 2012 (948 total, from 46 states and the District of Columbia), marked a 40 percent decrease from the number proposed during the first half of 2011 — 1,592.
One reason cited for the significant drop or delay in immigration legislation is the fact that several states are still embroiled in pending legislation over their authority to uphold or enforce immigration laws enacted in 2011, including provisions of the controversial Arizona v. United States case. Similar laws in Alabama, South Carolina and Utah also are being contested.
Of the laws that have been passed in 2012, the top issues include law enforcement and identification, which respectively comprised 18 and 11 percent of all enacted immigration laws so far this year.
A number of states, including Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Michigan, New Hampshire, and West Virginia, have enacted laws related to the E-Verify work authorization system — bringing the total number of states requiring E-Verify to 19.
More details on the immigration laws passed in 2012 can be found in the NCSL's full report.

So as you might have seen in the news, on Halloween the Northeast was rocked by a horrible Nor'easter at the end of October. It brought snow, sleet, ice just a mixture of all things terrible. All over there were thousands of downed trees, thousands of power outages, thousands of people panicking and going to the grocery store in search of food. Fast food places that had power got slammed with people wanting food because they couldn't cook on their electric stove, didn't have power or a generator. some people have children and were concerned with the freezing temperatures.
In Ipswitch (little north from here) the town is powered on solar and hydroelectric energy. Why can't all of the country do this? why do we still depend on oil and gas for energy? it's ridiculous. People were in a panic all over the northeast. Yes my house still uses oil to heat the house, But i'd like to save the planet and use solar or hydro energy. Where i live is not near the ocean, but if even we could have gas for energy that would make me feel better if it was natural gas.
So in conclusion i think we need to send letters nationwide to our state reps to ask for green energy, because eventually we will just kill off this planet. It is NOT normal for it to snow up here even in Massachusetts in OCTOBER. it is evident that global warming is climbing and climbing, along with global cooling even.
LETS DO SOMETHING about this. Who is with me?

I really support you, but I'm in the UK. I'll do my best to help from here, but your government will only take me so seriously.
We need to be more green too.
I don't understand the argument "we want to be cheap and fast" when oil is getting more expensive and we might as well use the money to change our supply.

Dusit Thani Pattaya
Daniela Hantuchova wins her second PTT Pattaya Open title at Dusit Thani Pattaya
After an exhilarating three-hour final match that drew tennis fans to the courts of Dusit Thani Pattaya on 12 February, Slovak Daniela Hantuchova successfully defended her title with a 6-7, 6-3, 6-3 victory over Russian Maria Kirilenko. Both players told reporters that they were pleased with their performances and would like to return next year. This year's PTT Pattaya Open was its 21st with Dusit Thani Pattaya, the event's official hotel.
The line-up of tennis stars included world number eight Vera Zvonareva of Russia (who came fresh from her Australian Open doubles victory), Thailand's Tamarine Tanasugarn, Romanian Sorana Cirstea, and India's Sania Mirza, who won the doubles final with Australian Anastasia Rodionova against Taiwanese pair Chan Hao-Ching and Chan Yung-Jan.
The week-long event also gave players the opportunity to experience some Thai culture and hospitality as extended by the staff and management of Dusit Thani Pattaya. When not on the courts, WTA players engaged themselves in other activities, including an eco-friendly event held at the hotel's Chaba Beach.

Psychology of the future and information you can use now
What am I most passionate about? The ability research findings from advanced psychological science have to significantly impact quality and quantity of life for all humans. We're already starting to see research finding applied more often in the real world, and I think that this trend is starting to accelerate.
We will uncover more and more of the mysteries of the brain through scientific exploration: its physical and information processing mechanisms, how it is impacted by our environment (including other humans) and by our personal choices (what we eat, how we exercise, how we deal with stress, the emotions we choose to feel, and its connection with our other biological systems (i.e. through psychoneuroimmunology).
It won't always be easy, but humans will increasingly incorporate this knowledge into designing our societies – corporations and entrepreneurs will probably apply the new knowledge first, hopefully followed by parents and educators, and then maybe governments and other organizations. Conservatives and those with a financial or power stake may try to stand in the way.
From my perspective as a former psychology student, futurist, MBA graduate, and HR professional, I am hopeful that this revolution in the application of psychological sciences will come sooner than later. Applying our understanding of how we think, learn, behave, and change will allow us to avoid unnecessary violence, inequality, health epidemics, economic irrationality, power mongering, general unhappiness, and missed opportunities to explore and understand the universe and metaverse.
Over the coming months, this blog will share and analyze psychological research I find particularly impactful and provide thoughts on how you can use this information in your daily life right now. If there are particular topics you as readers are curious about, please post them in the comments section and I will try to cover them in future blog posts.
Look forward to blog posts in at least these areas: • Positive psychology, resiliency, strengths-based management and career development • Learned helplessness and learned optimism • Neuropsychology, brain plasticity, amygdala hijacks, mirror neurons • Humanism, Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs • Decision-making, rational thinking, creative thinking • Social psychology, wide-scale societal attitudinal change • Psychoneuroimmunology, health psychology, exercise, nutrition, glycemic roller coasters, stress, sleep • Mindfulness, meditation, self-awareness, emotional intelligence • Education, child-raising
I'm looking forward to delving into this with you all!

The future of psychology is an exciting realm. Like the futures of perhaps all fields of study, psychology is always changing. The mind is a fascinating world to explore. What we are distinguishing in the world of psychology is the relationship between the mind and our behavior. The study of this relationship reveals more and more insight and explanation for how the world occurs for us and how we occur to ourselves. What I am most interested in is the idea that neither the study of psychology, nor the results of the study of psychology can exist without language. This idea does not exclude any other field of study. There was a time, way before the study of psychology or any other study, where existed a world and suddenly it occurred to us and became the occurring world. While this was happening, our brain was certainly doing something without it occurring to us. Most likely it was doing the same thing then as it is now, processing the occurring world and comparing it to what it has already seen in the past, then making a decision based on what it doesn't want. Simple, yet extremely effective. At that time, we didn't call this process anything, and perhaps, we did not recognize the occurring world as anything, perhaps even separate from us. IT was just so. IT being US as we "be" and at the same time, the world as it "be" to us. Seemingly, the only way we humans could get to the point of acknowledging IT as something separate from us, and us separate from IT, IT being something that existed out there, something that was not us, was to speak it so. And so we declared it not us. And "not us" became reality. And "us" and "it" could not be distinguished without word. And now today we have an agreement with words about us and IT and everything that exists. And how the world occurs to us is a result of how it has occurred in the past, and we may now declare that "it is changing, or we are learning." This is valid and easily agreed upon. And thus it is most interesting to me.
What I am pointing to is that the advancement of psychology, science, religion, math and all other fields simply occur to us inside of language. We are learning more about the brain because we say so, and that the reasons why fit into an occurring world. We create it. We create progress, we create advancement and speed and knowledge. We create creating. And all of it is still nothing without language. And that doesn't mean it isn't there.
It seems to be that the future of psychology will not be determined, or found out or discovered but rather invented and created through language.
We will never catch up to what we are creating. How fun! Like a never ending recess of hide and seek. If indeed the brain is advancing and we as humans are also advancing, then we are not static. If we are not static, then we cannot be captured, and as fast as we distinguish what is happening, it has already changed. We have changed. And endless game of hide and seek. Once we are caught, a new game begins.

@ Iveta: Welcome to Future Blogger! I look forward to reading your posts, particularly the stuff about brain plasticity, machine intelligence, mirror neurons (autism, brain dev), social psych and mindfullness. re: mindfullness, I recently came a cross a cool study (will try to find the link) that found that paying attention to food increased the enjoyment or un-enjoyment of that food, and that when people didn't have time to pay attention it was always a more neutral experience. This gets at some of what peltaire wrote about…
@ Peltaire: So you're saying is that there's no such thing as a closed system and that we all create stories that reciprocally define who we are. I generally buy that. The mindfulness example I mention above seems to reflect some of your thinking re: how intertwined our perception, which is conditioned by ideas and valuse and memories, and our real-time emotional reaction to the world is. We'd like to think that we are static beings, but we're not. At the same time, the idea of being static and semi-permanent is a powerful concept that appears to aid us as a whole, while also probably causing much strife and depression on an individual level.
When you say, "It seems to be that the future of psychology will not be determined, or found out or discovered but rather invented and created through language," I get where you're coming from, but believe that bio-mimicry, pattern-mimicry, cosmo-mimicry is a powerful learning tool that works had in hand with creation. One does not exist sans the other—there is no creation, no new language, without discovery, pattern recognition and mimicry.
Cool thoughts overall.
Keeping in mind what you assert and what Iveta is interested in writing about, what would you like to see her tackle in her upcoming posts? Mindfullness seems like a great bridge topic here.

In your blog you state:
"avoid unnecessary violence, inequality, health epidemics, economic irrationality, power mongering, general unhappiness, and missed opportunities to explore and understand the universe and metaverse."
Where is the aspect of religion? People need to beleive in something if they don't are we going to consider them moral with there intentions? How will the next generation of children who are violent, love violent video games, have access to violent videos on youtube, who almost 50% don't even graduate from high school, 70% are single family homes, even be aware of these things. Where is the focus on the middle class? I look forward to reading your blog.
